The supplemental policies _do_ provide for hospitalization and surgery. It is you who is too ignorant to accept the truth. Mike What's he trying to say Mike? That we can't have health insurance? Or that it can't be used for hospital care? Neither. I'm saying that no amount of health care insurance in Canada will get you into a hospital or surgical suite ahead of anyone higher on the priority list than you. That it may cover all sorts of things that Canada's socialized medical system doesn't cover is beside the point. If you cannot use your insurance to guarantee you a room or surgery when YOU need it, not when the government decides to provide it to you, it's nothing more than palliative and gives you nothing more than a few perks in the hospital, provided you don't die waiting to be admitted. My old medical insurance provided that I could go to any hospital in the world and get immediate treatment, including admission and surgery as necessary, without any delay, without any permission from anybody, and it would pay the bills. You only get to go into the hospital if some government bureaucrat decides you "need" to do so, and you "need" to do so more urgently than somebody else. If they don't think you "need" to be admitted, or if they don't have room, you're ****ed, and you have to come to the US and pay the full price for your care. -- Regards, Scott Weiser "I love the Internet, I no longer have to depend on friends, family and co-workers, I can annoy people WORLDWIDE!"
